This is the audio from the January 17, 2023 live social media broadcast of encouragement and prayer by Impact Prayer Ministry’s director, Tom Lemler.
“But now, by dying to what once bound us, we have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.”
Romans 7:6 (NIV)
This week’s prayer emphasis will be about living as those who follow a new way in Christ. In fact, the first century Christians were so focused on following Jesus as “the Way, the Truth, and the Life”, that they were simply known to their opposition as followers of “The Way”. When we experience a new birth in Christ, we find that we have been called into a new way of thinking, seeing, and doing.
“Be wise in the way you act toward outsiders; make the most of every opportunity.”
Colossians 4:5 (NIV)
As you pray this week, ask God to help you live as one who has been called into a new way. Pray that you would be aware of every opportunity that God gives you to share about His way. Pray for the wisdom necessary to live in a way that helps others to see Jesus through you. Pray that God would guide your way among all the people you interact with each day.

In prayer,
Tom
